Did I Hear That Right?

Name Game #24

"So let me see it. Where is it?"
"Here. It's all right here in my noodle. The rest is just scribbling. Scribbling and bibbling, bibbling and scribbling."

Update: Another clue:
"This was no composition by a performing monkey! This was a music I'd never heard. Filled with such longing, such unfulfillable longing, it had me trembling. It seemed to me that I was hearing a voice of God."

Update: Another one:
"Your work is ingenious. It's quality work. And there are simply too many notes, that's all. Just cut a few and it will be perfect."
"Which few did you have in mind, Majesty?"

Update: Time to use character names:
" My father, he did not care for music. When I told him how I wished I could be like Mozart, he would say, "Boy, do you want to be a trained monkey? Would you like me to drag you around Europe doing tricks, like a circus freak?" "

Update: One last clue:
"A great mass of death! Requiem mass for Wolfgang Mozart, composed by his devoted friend, Antonio Salieri! Oh what sublimity, what depth, what passion in the music! Salieri has been touched by God at last."

Update: That was close! I thought I was going to have to give the answer, but Mrs Ham correctly guessed Amadeus. That is Mozart's middle name. This won the Oscar for best picture in 1985 and won a total of 8 awards.

  • Amadeus? I don't think that's even spelled right, and maybe not even a name. But once, I saw a movie about a composer, and that was called Amadeus. Maybe.
